The Painting Penguin Discusses Atlanta Deck Staining & Painting This Summer

    ATLANTA, GA, June 11, 2014 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Summer is the perfect time of the year to be outside enjoying your deck. But if your deck isn't looking its best, your enjoyment can be dampened severely. Before you head out to play and relax on your deck, call the Atlanta painters at The Painting Penguin to help your deck look its best.

Because they are exposed to the elements at all times, decks can take quite a beating even if they were originally made from protected wood. Wood eventually begins to bleach and break down due to exposure to sunlight, rain and dry weather. You need to take steps to protect your deck once every year or so.

The Painting Penguin offers full deck maintenance services to Atlanta residents. The company's deck maintenance packages begin with a full inspection of your deck to find any needed repairs then continues with a thorough cleaning of your deck. From there, the company offers two protective finishes: paint or stain.

Staining your deck allows for the natural grain and texture of your deck's wood to come through. You can determine how much of these details come through based on the color of stain you choose. New wood looks best with a lighter coat of stain, whereas older wood with blemishes can look best with a thick coat of a darker stain. You will need to apply stain once a year to keep your wood looking amazing.

"Painting allows you to go for a longer period without having to reapply, but it must be properly sealed to get the best results," says Stephen Popov, Managing Partner of The Painting Penguin. "Paint also offers many more color options than staining does."

Whether you choose to paint or stain your deck this summer, the professionals at The Painting Penguin have you covered. Learn more or make an appointment at http://www.thepaintingpenguin.com.
